    Barack Obama adviser says Sharia Law is misunderstood

    The vast majority of Sharia law is misunderstood. A lot of it gets mixed up with culture as well. The Qu'ran does not forbid many of the things forbidden to women in the Arab countries. It'd be like taking a look at the Spanish Inquisition and upholding that as God's Soldiers enforcing the...

    Ahmadinejad interview

    http://www.newsweek.com/id/216040 I have to say, he does make some very good points. A lot of our press drowns out his legitimate concerns with hyperbole and mis-information. Worth a read, no matter what your political persuasion is.

    Sarah Palin stepping down as Governor

    I haven't been following her ethics probe, but I guess it's kind of a big deal, unless this has nothing to do with that. I hope she stays out of politics and takes care of that Down syndrome kid of hers. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31...olitics-more_politics/

    Cheney approves of gay marriage

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31066626/ Didn't expect this one. I wonder what those people who buy the GOP hook, line, and sinker will say to this? Some GOP members/supporters practically have Cheney's balls in their mouths. Is Cheney a RINO now too?

    Gay Marriage

    I don't understand any of the logic behind the opposition to gay marriage. Government has no business legislating morality. Sure, it can make recommendations (eg eat these foods, exercise, etc etc) and encourage certain behaviors, but it should not outlaw behaviors that harm exactly no one...

    Obama approval rating all time high

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29493021/ The GOP has a serious image problem. I don't want a one-party political system either, but the way the Republicans keep making misstep after misstep, it's going to end up that way. Plus, after the way the Republicans raped America during the past 8...

    Conservatives

    I've seen this a lot lately, a lot of bashing what Obama has done and is going to do. How do you propose to address the myriad of problems the United States is facing, given that supply-side economics has been thoroughly discredited as a legitimate way of running an economy? What is the...

    EDIT: Energy Apocalypse Day within the next decade?

    http://www.odac-info.org/bulletin/C4Transcript.htm One of the best quotes here "I wouldn?t put a one percent. If it turned out that some miracle happened and we discovered some phenomenal fields that have defied discovery for the last 40 years, it?s Ð you can?t, you can never take a...

    Food for thought

    General Smedley Butler (Most Decorated US Marine Ever) War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few...

    9800NP Artifacting @ Default speeds??11

    Hi, I'm getting purple meshes over textures in OpenGL and DX games. I just got this card from an RMA. Currently, I'm using Catalyst 3.7 on a 9800NP. I had many lockup problems with the 4.3s. Whenever, I would do anything, BAM VPU Recover steps in. I moved my AGP bus down to 4x, and disabled...
